Sudoku Blue Master. And err... Green... and Red...

Ah yes, Sudoku - revisited here by the prolific NokiMoki in a trio of coloured boards. You know the rules, you know the drill and you get to pick the colour. £1, even for such a simple (and, in places, crude) implementation is marginal - but you'd pay more than that for the paper version in a newsagents. Even if you can live with the limitations, you probably won't want to get all three colour variants though!

Here's Sudoku Blue Master in action:

There's nothing wrong with the basics of Sudoku here, though it's not clear whether the puzzles are pre-programmed or randomly generated. I did like the 'Please Help' button, which fills in a square at random from the solution - an excellent way of nudging you in the right direction.

On the downside, there's lots of screen real estate wasted with adverts for the developer's other titles - given that this is a commercial game, this seemed a bit much.... Plus entering numbers is fiddly at best. Get your taps wrong and you'll be entering notes rather than full entries - and all numbers have to be input via the standard Symbian keyboard, which comes up in QWERTY mode every time and has to be switched. Gah. Not pretty.
